Questions fréquentes
What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build, this apartment is subject to IVA at 10%, which amounts to EUR 138,000 on the EUR 1,380,000 asking price. You should also budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600 to EUR 1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400 to EUR 800, and solicitor or legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 16,560 including VAT). Total additional costs typically fall between 12% and 13% of the purchase price.
Can non-residents obtain a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks typically lend non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation, whichever is lower, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. On EUR 1,380,000, that equates to a minimum deposit of roughly EUR 414,000 to EUR 552,000. Current variable and fixed rates from Spanish lenders range from approximately 3.5% to 4.5% per annum, though terms vary by lender and applicant profile.
What are the ongoing running costs?
Community fees are listed as EUR 0 in the current data; buyers should confirm this figure directly with the developer, as charges may apply once the development is fully handed over. IBI (annual property tax) and basura (refuse collection charge) figures have not been confirmed for this property and should be requested from the developer or local town hall before exchange.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. OceanHome can arrange a video viewing of the development, show-flat, or surrounding area if you are unable to travel to Sotoserena in person. We can also accompany you on a live video call during an in-person visit. To book either option, contact us directly with your preferred dates.
What is the rental potential for this apartment?
Estepona and the surrounding Costa del Sol coastline attract significant tourist demand throughout the year, with peak rental periods running from June to September and over Easter. A property of 352m2 with 3 bedrooms in a new-build development with communal pool could appeal to the short-term holiday rental market. You would need to obtain a regional tourist licence (Junta de Andalucía) before letting legally. We recommend consulting a local rental management company for realistic income projections based on comparable properties in Sotoserena.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), which can be obtained through a Spanish consulate or in Spain with a solicitor's help. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit (typically EUR 5,000 to EUR 10,000) is paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract in which 10% of the purchase price is usually paid. The sale is completed before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all taxes and fees are settled. Your solicitor will then register the title in your name at the Land Registry.
